In addition to being unintuitive, it also raises some tough questions, like: if they're all the same language today and the last speaker of B dies tomorrow, are A and C still dialects of the same language?įrom a linguist's point of view, there's no useful distinction between a dialect and a language. However, this is a property we'd expect if this criterion were enough to say that A, B, and C were all dialects of the same language. If A and B are mutually intelligible, and B and C are mutually intelligible, it is still possible that A and C are not mutually intelligible. Consider some language with distinct dialects A, B, and C lying at different points on the dialect continuum. The problem with this criterion is that mutual intelligibility is not transitive, so it doesn't support an intuitive notion of sameness that one might expect.
> The usual criterion for distinguishing language from dialect is mutual intelligibility. This is getting out of hand, I don't know when to stop. 'fn' means something like misery, by the way, Egypt had problems with Lybian Berbers. 'fnhw' - means and is the root of the word phoenician, but I'm not going to make jokes about anyone's nose, because the theory is that 'fnh' means carpenter. There are actually finds of DNA that could corroborate something like this - incidentally 'bbr' means babylon, one could think that's related to bereber. There's a discredited theory by Vennemann that linguistic evidence indicates Phonicians traveled from Spain to the north sea. rays of knowledge, rays of the sun figuratively as friends of the king, if connected to 'rkh' ) ' rht' - royal subjects, humanity ' rhs' - slaughter ' rhn' - to depend on 'rk' - time, age, era 'Gesetz' is probably just from 'setzen' 'nswt' is not to be confused with German "Naseweiß" 'rh' as ray is rather attractive, ie. There's more: ' rkh' - to burn ' rh-nswt' - "acquaintance of the king" ( nswt or nsw - king, god king 'sw' - day, also 'hr' - day, if there's a connection from day to sun, sky, this could be analog to 'deus', 'divine', if I say so myself, otherwise 'swt' - sedge is considered as symbol of upper Egypt, giving king of the sedge reeds, especially papyrus is related to writing and knowledge, so. Last time someone mentioned a possible connection from Egypt to Europe, it was quickly denounced. It could be from 'r' - mouth, 'hr' - head, top, chief. I reckon, with Egyptian 'rh' ("rekh" - to know), I become somewhat convinced of the idea. I thought so because Egyptian 'fnd' ("fenedj" - nose) does remind a little of 'find'. I thought that rex, the dog name, could be related to riechen more than roy, king, because that's what they do.
Rauch and riechen, Geruch are probably related, too, only very far back and with lots of different influences in the mean time. I'm prone to false etymologies, so take this with a pinch of salt.
